Default Spindle bolt replacement question

I'm ordering parts for the front steering for my 1915 touring and I noticed that Snyder's and Lang"s have replacements with oilers rather than a grease fitting like what I have now. It looks like someone added the grease fitting to make it easier? My question is: Is the grease fitting a good idea, or oiling better. I would think gear oil would be better that 30W...am I right or is a lighter oil better? Only the spindle bolts have the zerks, the tie rods have the flip-up oiler, which I never noticed before because they blend in with the bolt.
